Primary polydipsia and psychogenic polydipsia are forms of polydipsia[1] characterised by excessive fluid intake in the absence of physiological stimuli to drink.[2] Psychogenic polydipsia which is caused by psychiatric disorders, often schizophrenia, is often accompanied by the sensation of dry mouth. Some forms of polydipsia are explicitly non-psychogenic. Primary polydipsia is a diagnosis of exclusion.
